  • Time appears to slow down for moving objects due to relativistic effects.
  • Einstein's theory of relativity explains this phenomenon as a result of space-time being curved by mass and energy.
  • The faster an object moves, the more it curves spacetime around itself.
  • This curvature causes time dilation, where time seems to pass slower for moving objects compared to stationary ones.
  • Light waves appear less energetic (redder) because their wavelength has increased, resulting in gravitational redshift.
  • Another example is that gravity also warps spacetime, causing clocks at different heights or locations to tick differently.
  • Gravitational redshift occurs when light waves are stretched as they move away from massive objects like stars or black holes.
